Banded are off and now on my daily
So just waiting to get time to refurb new wheels and i will update with some sneaky pics. I'm falling for a bit of colour these days....
-
Slight update. Front end will be coming off at the weekend with a new one going on???? Passed its Mot today with no issues. Thermostat is getting replace and a full service so it will be running as sweet as a nut. Straight to the Garrage......

WOW

Best thing to do is drop it right to the bottom then start working up till you get no rubbing. Tbh you should be able to go all the way to the bottom on the rear and take the adjusters out and should still be able to take a full car. Front is slightly different. Just got to find what suits your roads/driving? The best thing about coilovers are they are adjustable.

A wee pic of the new ride. From standard to this in 48hrs before edition then never made it.

Give them a try i use them all the time. Great service

Managed to get the tyres fitted to the steels. 185 50 14 on a 7 & 8. Not going to be able to run them like this with the drop so i think its back to the back up wheels. Thought id whore some pics just to let you all have a gander.
-
Not as good as I hoped, lol.
What were you thinking of? Im half way through another set......
Hopefully these will keep the arch gap to a min? 14" by 7" and 8" Just need to get correct tyre size sorted. -

Ive not posted on here in ages. Reasons for the lupo packed in on the way to UD. The little beast is now running as sweet as a nut and booked in for a MOT on monday.
Since i havent had her on the road properly iv been gathering a few bits and pieces 
Will update on monday and maybee give you a sneaky peek at the new shoes and body parts. -
Just remember take your time with it. Use a hair dryier to soften the glue then use a old credit card or dental floss to remove the badge from the paint work. Once your left with bits of glue just use a cloth and some tar/glue remover and work it in till you have a new shiny tailgate. Remember to polish and wax the area after this as you have stripped your protection back to the bones.
I have some bottles of tardis for sale that will quickly cut through the glue thats left over if you want some.

A few more pics from the past. The rack is mostly all sb's. All the shoes in the rack are now in my bros collection. If your a bit of a Sneeker geek there are a few special ones in there. See if you can find them?
These are random buys

My drive please cause i anit even had a look at the lupo yet?
-
These photo's are from nearly a year ago. You get the picture.
-
If its for bumpstrips i recomend the old fashion polishing cloths and some AG tar remover and a bit of elbow grease. Be patient. If you try to pick it off you might catch the paintwork. Also use a hair dryer to soften the glue and use your thumb to ease it off.
-
Dont take it to a garrage. They will charge you like £200 and a bet you wont be happy with the hight unless you sit there all day watching them. Get on www.scottishvag.net As for the Badge there is a recess behind the badge. Will need it welded if yuo want to run the tailgate smooth.
-
Welcome Mate. Not many people on here from Scotland let alone Edinburgh. I would give you a hand but im in Ayrshire. Pop on to Scottishvag.net and put a post up. You'll have them fitted before the weekend. Just remember when your putting them on take out the helpers from the rear and wind the front right down.
-
I would love to do one.. Think they could be realy cool if someone put some thought into it. If its got a vw badge it has its place in the "scene"

This was the way mine was sitting before i went travellng.
Sorry about the shadow. And the spings hadn't settled.

My neck lasted for 8 months, whereas my wrist lasted just over 6 weeks.
I have one left in the back of my neck that has now been in there for 8/9 years. Got it done before surfaces bars were out and it was done with a standard 10mm bar slightly bent. Had no problems used to take it out for work now its been in there for years without any problems.
